language
Language of the inner world is
about the way our
nonconscious mind (subconscious
and unconscious) communicates with our conscious
mind. If we learn the symbolism of this inner language, we find
there is a wealth of information that can be accessed through our
subconscious and unconscious mind.
Function of the inner
language (Top)
The language of the inner world is
what our
creative spirit uses to communicate to our conscious
mind what it desires to experience and what it thinks and feels
about any topic. In the same way we are unique individuals but share
a common experience with other, this language of the inner world
will be unique to us although it will have many common elements with
others. It is what gives rise to the
traditional archetypes. How our creative spirit communicates, in
part, depends on what it needs to do to do to get our attention. It
obviously communicates in a much easier and gentler fashion if we
are mindful and aware and opened to listening.
This last statement is very important. Language is about
communications. As an individual, language is about communicating
who and what we are and what we think and believe and what we feel.
If we have nothing to say or to share, we don’t really have anything
to communicate so we have no need for a way to communicate. The same
is true out the language of our inner world. The inner language
plays the greatest role when our
nonconscious mind has something to communicate to our conscious
mind. This, of course, usually means our conscious mind is not
listening. When we are mindful and aware and in touch with what we
feel, we “know” and our nonconscious mind has no need to speak to
us. Rather it is heard without speaking.
The
nonconscious mind will do what it needs to do to communicate. It
has been observed is that the way the nonconscious
mind communicated depends on how much attention the conscious
mind give to what it has to say. When the conscious mind does not
listen, the nonconscious mind will in essence scream at us - the
proverbial “wake up call” - and use a form of communication that
tends to be strong and powerful. The nonconscious mind will use
pain and things like
accident, illness, disease and the like to get our attention.
When necessary, it behooves us to listen before we need experience
pain or some form of accident, illness or disease.
When we are mindful and aware of our thinking and/or of things that
happen in our life, the
nonconscious will use things like thoughts, ideas, visions,
dreams, intuitive insights, and the like to communicate with us.
Some experience voices. Some experience spirits and/or spirit
guides. Some experience nocturnal dream. Some get visions. Some use
external sources such as
familiars and synchronicity. Some simply know. The more we are
open to knowing, the less our nonconscious
mind need to speak. The problem for most of us is that we try
and use another’s technique rather than do the necessary work and
exploration to find out what their nonconscious mind prefers to use.
When we routinely list to our
nonconscious and do what it desires us to do in our life, the
communication seems not existence and there appears to be no inner
language. We just know what we need to do and go do it. Here we live
in a conscious experience of oneness and interconnectedness. It can
be said it is to know without knowing we know. Rather, we just act
from the knowing.
The question is, “How is our
nonconscious mind currently communicating with our conscious
mind?” When we understand how it is communicating, we then need
to ask, “How do we learn the inner language that it is using so that
we understand what is being communicated?”
Becoming aware of the desire of the nonconscious mind to communicate
(Top)
The answer to the first question,
“How is our
nonconscious mind currently communicating with our conscious
mind?” is the nonconscious mind will communicate in whatever way
it can get the attention of our conscious mind. So we need to look
to see what is grabbing our attention in life. What grabs our
attention is what we feel. We need to see if what we feel in life is
pulling us toward something, pushing us away from something or
whether or not we are experiencing
pain.
It needs to be realized is the
nonconscious mind communicates through feeling. Thoughts, ideas
and the like are just our
mind's characterization of what we sense and feel based on its
past experiences. We know through feelings when we are in alignment
with the desires of the nonconscious mind and when we are not. Our
conscious mind perceives based on symbols or metaphors of what we
feel. That is the energy of what we feel is characterized by our
enculturated mind based on our past experiences into a thought,
idea, vision or the like which our conscious mind can understand.
What is important here to understand about this inner
mind is that when our conscious mind is engaged, whatever the
nonconscious mind presents will be characterized by what we have
experienced in our current lifetime. When the conscious mind is not
actively engaged, such as in sleep, meditation or distracted in
creative play, what is presented by the nonconscious mind will be
characterized by both the
transcendental mind and the
enculturated mind.
That is, information will be presented that seems to arise from past
lives.
Whether or not we actually lived the past lives which arise doesn’t
matter. What is important is the information that is presented to
us. Similarly, even if we have tremendously details from past life
memories that can be proven as correct such as a name, time of birth
or death and the like, whether we live that life or not doesn’t
matter. What matters is that person’s life that we access contains
the information or understanding we need to have. This then takes us
to the second question, “How do we learn the inner language that it
is using so that we understand what is being communicated?”
Background on the inner
language (Top)
Each of us are an aspect of an
infinite Consciousness as describe in the
Creation Story for the Creativity Perspective. Some analogies of
how this is possible is presented in provided in the topic “Analogies
for understanding the individualized points of consciousness.”
If we can move past the
illusion of mind and the
illusion of our separateness, we can see we have access to
anything we need to understand for what we desire to create. As an
aspect of this infinite Consciousness we can access any other part
of this Consciousness and anything that it knows. As an infinite
creator of the experiences we have and the reality of those
experiences, all is available to us. It is available so that we can
create what we desire. The question is, “How do we access such
knowledge and power.”
Although most of this information lies outside the realm of our
conscious awareness it is available to our conscious awareness
through the awareness of the
nonconscious mind. Our nonconscious
mind is tasked with a way of giving it to our conscious mind.
When we can understand these concepts, we can see that what we need
to know to create anything we desire is accessible to us from
within. We only need to go within to make it conscious.
Although this is possible, it is tremendously difficult to do
consciously because of the design of the physical experience and
nature of mind and its need to obtain a
minimum set of experience before it can consciously really
understands how something works Consciously going to the Source is
very difficult for we can get easily distracted and become lost in
the infinity that exists.
However we can access what we seek relatively easily through the use
of our
intuitive guidance and the our unique inner language. We just
need to become aware of our own unique inner language to properly
understand and interpret what we find. To learn this inner language
we first must become aware of its existence and then become mindful
and aware of what arises from within our being and exactly what we
are experiencing in life. We then must be willing to experiment with
it at least in our
creative imagination much the way we learn to do anything in
life.
Learning the inner language
(Top)
Learning the symbolism of the
inner language depends on how the
nonconscious mind is getting the attention of our conscious
mind. The
nonconscious mind will use essentially a different language
depending on how mindful and aware the conscious mind is of what the
nonconscious mind desires. These are which most individuals
experience to one degree or another.
First there is a language which is reasonably precise and with
somewhat generic symbols the
nonconscious mind uses when it needs to use
pain and/or
accident, illness or disease to communicate. The symbolism here
seems to arise from the fact we are human being sharing a common
experience. As such there are common or generic ways the human body
processes the energy it experiences. Hence, the type and kind of
pain and/or accident, illnesses and diseases we have as human carry
common energetic origins. This is the symbolism in which many
psychics and medical intuitives access when “reading” an individual.
The second is the language and symbolism the
nonconscious uses when we are mindful and aware that there is a
communication with our nonconscious becomes different. The symbolism
that is used begins to take on a more unique and personal flavor
based on all the experience we have had. Here we have to study and
learn our own symbolism. In creativity there are
no
mistakes but only learning experiences as to what does and
doesn’t work. However, it is here one can make a mistake. Namely,
many make the mistake of going off on the wrong path relative to the
needs of their
creative spirit and what truly serves them. Rather than
experimenting and learning to work with, and understand, their own
unique symbolism, they being to us that provided by another.
The third is when one is aware of the existence of their
creative spirit and they are willing to work with it to meet its
desires, the language of the inner world is feeling. Here there is
no separation within our inner being. Here one experiences an inner
satisfaction and a wholeness to life and existence. Here we simply
know what needs to be done. There is no need for the conscious
mind to interpret and put what is felt into symbols. Rather we
simply act on what we feel and we know.
The non
conscious mind getting our attention - symbolism in pain,
accident, illness and disease
(Top)
Any physical experience we have is
ultimately created by how we choose to focus our awareness and
attention. Our focus of our awareness and attention is determined by
the composite energy of what we hold consciously, subconsciously and
unconsciously. The question is what part of the experience we have
in the world is being determined by our conscious
mind and our
nonconscious mind.
There are no judgements on what we create but there are
consequences. Sometimes what we choose to experience in life have
the consequences of
pain and/or
accident, illness and disease. However, at other times, our
nonconscious mind will create pain and/or accident, illness and
disease to get our attention and call us back to an alternative
path for our life. Exactly why we experience what we do is only
something we can individually answer. Here we must look within to
understand what we really desire to experience in, and with, our
life to know why we experience pain and or accident, illness or
disease.
There are books available that individuals who are medically
intuitive at diagnosing the origins of an individual’s medical
condition have compiled. Often these are a helpful starting point.
But, they will not necessarily be accurate in any individual case.
The place to start is to ask our inner self “Why am I experiencing
this particular
pain,
accident, illness or disease?” We then need to be open to what
we receive. Sometime we don’t want to hear what needs to be told to
our conscious
mind. Often we will not get the specific answer we desire.
Rather we get information that leads us to a source that can provide
the answer we seek. It is not uncommon to have a synchronicity as an
answer. For example, one may ask, “Where is my back pain coming
from?” Then a book such as Healing Back Pain by Dr Sarno
crosses their path or someone gives them a book by Louise Hay or
Carolyn Myss that puts them on the path to their answer.
As we become aware of some of the types and kinds of things that can
be causing what we experience, we learn to become more mindful and
aware of the experiences we have. In this awareness, the language of
the inner world changes. We move from our
nonconscious mind having to get the attention of our conscious
mind to a language of symbolism and metaphor. It is here one
being to see the
traditional archetypes and dream work. However, what we
experience will be unique to us.
Learning the inner language of symbols and metaphors
(Top)
What needs to be understood is
that how we focus our attention and awareness is creating both our
experiences and the reality of those experiences. Our
nonconscious mind can and will communicate what it knows about
why we have the experiences we do, where the experience is carrying
or not carrying us, what we can expect in the future and other
information about our life. How it communicates will be unique to
who and what we are. But we have to learn to listen and pay
attention.
What we hold in
mind can also be expressed as creating the
offspring through the
marriage of our inner masculine and inner feminine. The
experiences we have in the world are then the result of the
dance between this offspring and the world in which we find
ourselves as this offspring tries to unfold in the world. It is here
we can find a starting point to being to understand and explore this
inner language, We need to both look at the type and kind of inner
marriage we have and exactly what type and kind of experiences we
are perceiving externally.
What will be observes is that we explore this inner language and
begin to work with it, what we experience internally and externally
will change. We will move from a world what appears to be a shallow
and only a physical world into the unseen world characterized by the
mystic and
shaman. If we continue that journey we move even deeper into a
world where the mystic and shaman disappear and there is simply
feeling and the awareness of the knowing within the feeling It is
here one finds the oneness of Creation and all existence. It is
beyond what our
mind can comprehend and effectively characterize. It is here the
language of symbolism and metaphors also seems to disappear. There
is a different type and kind of communication which occurs.
This is the realm where we can understand how we can be the
creator/Creation of the experiences we have and the reality of those
experiences. It lies outside the realm of our conscious awareness.
This is by design and not because there is anything wrong with us.
This is why it make no sense to try and fix ourselves or feel we
need to somehow transcend the physical world. Rather we just need to
allow ourselves to step out of
mind and enter a world that already exists.
The physical world is the way it is to give us the experience we
desire to have at some level of our being. To experience something
that better
serves us or that we think we would like better, we simply need
to access our
creative power and creative ability to create it. However most
have never been told they have such creative power, let alone taught
how to use it. The language of our inner world will teach us how to
access and use the depth and breadth of our inherent creative power
and creative ability if we allow it to teach us.
What needs to be understood is that what we perceive depends on the
experiences we desire to have. This includes the inner language. If
we consciously want to become a
shaman or a
mystic, the
nonconscious mind will use a language that both allows us to
become that shaman or mystic and communicate what it desires to
communicate. This fact is ultimately what brings confusion to
individual.
We focus our attention and awareness into a particular direction
based on the understanding of our conscious
mind. As such, we create experiences based on that focus.
However, our
nonconscious mind continues to push its desires but we are
unaware of the nonconscious push that is biasing what we create
because of our enculturation, life programming and/or the
intention for our life. We think becoming a
shaman,
mystic or anything else in life like an engineer, doctor,
spouse, parent, politician and the like is what bring us the
satisfaction we desire in life. But, in reality, it is our
nonconscious mind allowing us to meet its needs as a shaman, mystic,
doctor or whatever. What is missed is that as an
infinite creative being, there are an infinite number of ways in
which we can meet the needs of our
creative spirit which surfaces through the inner language
provided by our nonconscious mind. However, some of the ways are
much more fulfilling and internally satisfying than others. We think
the fulfilment comes in what we choose to become in life. However,
it is what we do in live that is important, not what we become.
Some
observations about our inner language (Top)
Authority figures and guides
(Top):
Because we rely on our care givers early in life and there are
physical needs which they provide for us, we develop a perspective
that what we need in life lies outside of us. Additionally, many are
taught that authority comes from outside of us rather than us have
the capability to lead ourselves. Many do not believe we could have
authoritative guidance for our life within ourselves. We are never
taught much of what we need in life relative to our
creative power and creative ability lies within us.
It is only natural for us to continue to look outside ourselves for
guidance for our life. Authority figures are seen as other beings in
our life. Even when the guidance does originate within our own
being, we will experience it coming from outside ourselves. Since we
believe in separate we will perceive internal spirit guide or some
type and kind of seen or unseen external guides providing the
guidance. Either we are lead to someone externally who tells us what
we already know or represents the type and person we feel we must
visit to get what we desire. Or, we will have some type or kind of
mystical experience where we experience a vision and/or we
experience unseen guides or entities that provide us the direction
for our life that we need. The concept of channeling in a trance
state is such an occurrence where although the guidance comes
through us it appears some other entity rather then ourselves is
providing it.
Most never consider that no matter what vehicle is used to
communicate to us, it is a part of our own being talking to us. So
rather than just allowing what works for us unfold, we seek what
others have. We hold other who have communication with unseen realms
as somehow special or having powers we don’t have. The key is to
learn to ask the question of our
intuitive guidance and then seen how the answer is provide to
us.
Intuitive
guidance and the inner language
(Top):
In many ways it can be said that the inner language is another form
of
intuitive guidance but slightly different. Actually, our
intuitive guidance is part of this inner language but the inner
language encompasses much more. The main different between intuitive
guidance and this inner language is the way the material is
presented.
Intuitive guidance is what we feel and experience presented in
the best
mind can present based on its past experiences. As discussed in
the topics “Intuitive
Guidance” there will be an inaccuracy in what is presented until
we obtain the necessary
minimum set of requisite experience to understand what is being
sensed.
This inner language is different. It is what gives rise to dreams
and visions, especially nocturnal dreams which carry information for
our life. Here
mind chooses a symbolism and tells a story or presents an
understanding of a situation based on and within that symbolism. The
story it tells is accurate if we understand the symbolism mind is
using. An example of this is the nocturnal dream of the author
discussed and presented in the topic “Dream
Mediation Vision on Sexuality.” The dream, is very rich in
symbolism and truth. However, unless we have the key to the
symbolism which is unique to the individual, the dream does not make
as much sense as it can, if it is seen to make any sense.
Using the language (Top)
Each of our
nonconscious minds has a symbolism that it uses to communicate.
It is based on our past experience but is capable of using both the
enculturated mind
and
transcendental mind. Some of this symbolism will correspond to
the
traditional archetypes but will not always be used in the same
way.
If we desire to access, explore and release our
unlimited creativity it is recommended this inner language be
studied and understood. The key is to understand the language of our
own unique inner world is this inner language use by our
nonconscious mind. How to learn and use this language is simply
a matter of becoming aware of its existence and experimenting with
it in our lives. It is a language unique between our conscious and
nonconscious
mind. Others may guide us and offer their advise but it is
something each of must explore and study in our own way. Learning
this inner language open the door way to both is seen by the outer
world as opening the door to
shamanism and
mysticism. However, it is only really accessing the depth of our
own inherent
creative power and creative
ability to communicate with the unseen part of ourselves and
Creation.
One way to explore our inner language is to look at our life. For
example, drawing a
life map or
telling our story, and looking to see where the was a direct or
indirection communication from our
nonconscious mind using the inner language and/or our
intuitive guidance. As we do this exercise, we need to become
aware of the symbolism that was used and what type and kind of
information was provided. In becoming aware of how our nonconscious
mind communicated in the past and symbolism that was used we can
become more aware of how it speak to us and be more aware of its
communications in the future.
